.44-77 and paper patch?

[Distant Thunder]

First off I find the search on the Shiloh forum almost useless. So after hours of digging through many post I believe that Shiloh cuts their chambers at .077" for the rim. So figuring that, something around .074" to .076" should make the rifle happy.

A rim diameter of .620-.625" with a thickness of .074-.076" should work well.

Also I have designed two bullets on my CAD software and I'll try to get those posted tomorrow. With luck I'll cut the first of those late this year and the other I'll wait until I know more about what the rifle requires.

I have all the dies I'll need. Also I have a wad punch which I'll alter to be a rotary style at some point. I also plan to refinish the wood while I wait. I can't really think of anything else I'll need to do.

With fall coming there will be much to do to prepare for winter and that will keep me out of trouble while I wait somewhat patiently.

Anyone have an idea how long it typically takes Shiloh to rebarrel one of their rifles?
